That first location generated a lot of buzz in the Alamo City, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysanantonio.com\/food\/restaurants\/article\/Guy-Fieri-keeps-spotlight-on-San-Antonio-13472500.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:a feature on Guy Fieri&#039;s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives in 2018;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">a feature on Guy Fieri&#8217;s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives in 2018<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Recently, the family-run restaurant has made waves for its Caf\u00e9 Con Ron parties, which blend caffeination with reggaeton beats, as well as the newly-added <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysanantonio.com\/food\/article\/luna-rosa-bodega-19795123.php\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Bodega at Luna Rosa concept;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Bodega at Luna Rosa concept<\/a>, which added a connected coffee and pastry shop next door.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Luna Rosa has been open in San Antonio since 2015, but moved to their outgoing Southtown location in 2023.

(Emma Weidmann\/MySA)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;From the very beginning, this dream has been built with love, hard work, and a whole lot of\u00a0coraz\u00f3n. We&#8217;ve weathered trials and tribulations, including the unimaginable challenge of the pandemic. Along the way, we&#8217;ve also celebrated incredible milestones &#8211; being featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives with Guy Fieri, winning awards like Best Margarita (two years in a row), Best Cuban Sandwich in Town, and Best Latin American Restaurant in Town, among many others,&#8221; the post read.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post continued,\u00a0 &#8220;When we took that leap of faith and moved to downtown, we grew from a cozy 15-table spot to a vibrant 300-seat restaurant. For the past 3 1\/2 years, we&#8217;ve proudly proven that authentic Puerto Rican cuisine &#8211; a cuisine made with love and cooked fresh to order &#8211; can shine in a large-format, high-volume setting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">General Manager\u00a0Omar Ornelas told MySA via direct message that the move is about more than a change in addresses, marking the &#8220;love, support, and trust&#8221; the 210 has shown over the years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;This city has embraced our Puerto Rican culture, food, and music in such a beautiful way, and we&#8217;re deeply thankful,&#8221; Ornelas said. &#8220;More than anything, we want our guests to know how much this current location means to us. It&#8217;s where our dream grew into something bigger than we ever imagined. Before we move, we hope everyone will come by, celebrate with us, and make a few more beautiful memories in this space that holds so much of our story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"The former Hot Joy location at 1014 S.
